This was a telephone app following an echocardiogram, and I was very pleased with Dr Kirk, everything was explained in concise terms by a very friendly Doctor. I will have a follow up in 12 months and was very pleased to be offered the option of a face to face consultation, which I gladly accepted.

Highly efficient, no waiting despite my early arrival. Had height/weight and blood pressure taken almost immediately, quickly followed by an ECG. A very brief weight before seeing the Cardiologist, who was welcoming, professional and knowledgeable, giving prudent advice, adjusting my medication and setting up follow-up appointments. Brilliant and highly recommended. Thank you.
